Risk factors and predictive model for gas-related adverse events following peroral endoscopic myotomy.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND
aimsGas-related adverse events (GRAEs) are common after peroral endoscopic myotomy (POEM). Although air insufflation is a recognized risk factor, determinants of GRAEs in the era of carbon dioxide insufflation remain unclear. We aimed to identify independent risk factors after excluding air-insufflation cases and to develop and validate a clinically applicable prediction model.
methodsWe retrospectively analyzed 3965 consecutive patients who underwent POEM between 2011 and 2024 at a tertiary referral center. GRAEs were defined as pneumoperitoneum, pneumothorax, pneumomediastinum, or subcutaneous emphysema requiring intervention. Patients were randomly allocated to training (80%) and validation (20%) cohorts. Independent predictors were identified using multivariable logistic regression in the training cohort. Model performance was evaluated in the validation cohort using discrimination (AUC) and calibration.
resultsGRAEs occurred in 298 patients (7.5%). Multivariable analysis identified mucosal edema (OR 1.97; 95% CI 1.33-2.89), tunnel length ≥ 13 cm (OR 2.75; 95% CI 1.95-3.94), selective myotomy (OR 11.81; 95% CI 8.63-16.18), and mucosal injury (OR 2.52; 95% CI 1.74-3.62) as independent predictors (all P ≤ 0.001). Patients were stratified into low- (< 2 factors) and high-risk (≥ 2 factors) groups with significantly different GRAE rates. The model demonstrated good discrimination (AUC 0.763; 95% CI 0.732-0.794) and satisfactory calibration.
conclusionsWe developed and internally validated a practical risk prediction model for GRAEs after POEM in the carbon dioxide era. This model may facilitate risk stratification and individualized perioperative management.
